In the army there are 3 main FM's that cover leadership. They are FM 7-0, FM 7-1, and FM 6-22. The Army's definition of leadership is the process of influencing people by providing purpose, direction and motivation while operating to accomplish the mission and improving the organization. An army leader is anyone who by virtue of assumed role or assigned responsibility inspires and influences people to accomplish organizational goals. Army leaders motivate people both inside and outside the chain of command to pursue actions, focus thinking, and shape decisions for the greater good of the organization.

Influencing is getting soldiers to do what is necessary. Influencing entails more than simply passing along orders. Leaders must set the example for soldiers with every action taken and word spoken both on and off duty. By ensuring that through actions and words the NCO is doing the right thing they show their soldier's what is expected of them as soldiers in the Army. When an NCO properly influences their soldiers they give them purpose, direction, and motivation.

Purpose gives soldiers the reason to act in order to achieve a desired outcome. Leaders give soldiers purpose through the use of requests and/or orders given to the soldiers.Providing clear direction involves communicating how to accomplish a mission. Direction helps soldiers to prioritize tasks, assign responsibility, and ensure soldiers understand the standard for accomplishing the mission. Soldiers want and need direction and they need challenging tasks, quality training, and adequate resources to accomplish the mission. Soldiers develop professionally when given appropriate freedom of action. Providing clear direction allows soldiers the freedom to modify plans and orders to adapt to changing circumstances. A sergeant should take the time and have the patience to explain to the soldiers what is required of them to ensure the soldiers have all the information required to properly accomplish the task. A sergeant does it by calling them together for a few minutes to talk about the workload, the time constraints, and all criteria for successful mission completion. Although many soldiers may tire of hearing from sergeants about how well they are doing it is an important part of keeping soldiers motivated. The payoff comes when a unit is given more mission tasking's than they have NCO's to supervise them all. The sergeant will not have time to explain, acknowledge performance, or motivate all their soldiers, they may not even be able to be with their soldiers at all. The leader will not have to worry because he will already know that his soldiers will do their jobs and accomplish the mission because their leader has earned their trust and given soldiers enough rope to complete the task on their own before when they where able to supervise and revise their soldiers performance and ensure their soldiers are competent.

Motivation supplies the will to do what is necessary to accomplish a mission. Motivation comes from within, but is affected by external stimulation like like their leaders actions and words. A leader's role in motivation is to understand the needs and desires of their soldiers so they know what actions to take in order to motivate the individuals and the group as a whole. Some people have high levels of internal motivation to get a job done, while others need more reassurance and feedback. Motivation spurs initiative when something needs to be accomplished. Soldiers become members of the Army team for the challenge. That is why it is important to keep them motivated with demanding assignments and missions. As a leader, you should learn as much as possible about others capabilities and limitations, then give over as much responsibility as can be handled. When subordinates succeed, praise them. When they fall short, give them credit for what they have done right, but advise them on how to do better. When motivating...

Foreword
Leadership is paramount to our profession. It is integral to our institutional success today
and tomorrow. As we transition to meet the challenges of an increasingly complex and
uncertain environment, our Army requires intelligent, competent, physically and mentally
tough leaders of character. Decentralized operations require leaders at all levels that
understand their environment, learn quickly, make sound decisions, and lead change.
Because there are no predetermined solutions to problems, Army leaders must adapt their
thinking, formations, and employment techniques to the specific situation they face. This
requires an adaptable and innovative mind, a willingness to accept prudent risk in
unfamiliar or rapidly changing situations, and an ability to adjust based on continuous
assessment.
General of the Army Omar Bradley once remarked: “Leadership in a democratic army
means firmness, not harshness; understanding, not weakness; generosity, not selfishness;
pride, not egotism.”
His words continue to resonate today in both peace and war. This requires personal
commitment,...

...BSTRACT
The web spoofing describes an Internet security attack that could endanger the privacy of World Wide Web users and the integrity of their data. The attack can becarried out on today's systems, endangering users of the most common Web browsers.Web spoofing allows an attacker to create a "shadow copy" of the entire World WideWeb. Accesses to the shadow Web are funneled through the attacker’smachine, allowing the attacker to monitor all of the victim's activities including any passwords or account numbers the victim enters. The attacker can also cause false or misleading data to be sent to Web servers in the victim's name, or to the victim in thename of any Web server. In short, the attacker observes and controls everything thevictim does on the Web. First, the attacker causes a browser window to becreated on the victim's machine, with some of the normal status and menu informationreplaced by identical-looking components supplied by the attacker. Then, the attacker causes all Web pages destined for the victim's machine to be routed through theattacker's server. On the attacker’s server, the pages are rewritten in such a way that their appearance does not change at all, but any actions taken by the victim would be logged by the attacker. In addition, any attempt by the victim to load a new page would cause thenewly-loaded page to be routed through the attacker's server, so the attack wouldcontinue on the new page.

Ã¢â‚¬Å“Good leadershipÃ¢â‚¬Â is also, of course, a matter of interpretation and individual belief.

...those terms as synonymous. An individual can be a great leader but not a manager. Conversely, a typical nurse can be a manager but not possess many nursing leadership skills. According to Huber (2010) leadership is defined as “the process of influencing people to accomplish goals” (p. 6). Key concepts related to leadership according to Huber (2010) are influence, communication, group process, goal attainment and motivation. At is core,leadership is influencing people. In contrast, management involves influencing employees to meet an organizational goals and objectives. Huber (2010) defines management as “the coordination and integration of resources through planning, organizing, coordinating, directing, and controlling to accomplish specific on institutional goals and objectives (p.5). Managers plan, organize and control, while leaders communicate vision, motivate, inspire and empower in order to create organizational change.
Although differences do exist, the roles can definitely overlap. The best case scenario is for an individual to have the best characteristics of both. All nurses are leaders and managers at some level. We all strive for a balance between doing the right thing and doing things right. The rapid and dramatic changes in health care make these skills more important than ever.
I see my current leadership style as being a very hands-on manager. While I am clearly in charge of my...
